Well, I and one of the other norwegian girls was supposed to go to the christmas light switch-on show with a Romanian exchange student, but apparently I got the time wrong… At least we had reached the centum before the fireworks started.

It was very different from the event in the park.

You could hear the loud bangs of the explosion, almost feel it, and all the people on the streets stopped to watch. It was really different. And the fireworks coming up from behind the building looked awesome!

Really love the pic above~!

santa on high bikes... and poor reindeers!

Christmas lights!

From underneath~!

Totally not like the Norwegian tradition of speeches, gingerbread and stuff. The parade went inside one of the shopping malls where the kinds got to sit on santa’s lap. In Norway you’re lucky if you see the santa, and really really lucky if you get sweets from him.

Oh, its time for another Instagram post. This will be the last big one, I’m going back to small updates again. This is because I am totally up to date with my post. The last few pictures is from yesterday. So enjoy this little piece of how my last weeks have been :)

Oh yeah it’s been quite busy lately. Too much to do on too little time, and that’s just uni work. I am also supposed to see and experience stuff since I’m in another country. So I found some time on saturday to go to the bonfire and fireworks event~

Started the evening with homemade pizza and a nice atmosphere, and I was looking more and more forward to the fireworks. Children’s shows went off much earlier so we could hear it before going out.

While walking there we could smell the fireworks smoke.

We expected a bonfire, music and fireworks. Little did we know that the bonfire would be huge, that there would be a Tivoli there, that there would be shops selling toffee apples and cotton candy. And by all means, we didn’t expect the fireworks to last for 20 minutes, or being synced to blasting loud music.

It just made my night, actually, it made my weekend.

It was to awesome when the fireworks went with the beat of “I’m sexy and I know it”, a Muse song I don’t remember the name off, Ozzy Osbourne, and of course “Wonder Wall”!.

Here's a taste of the fireworks,
to many pictures to put it all into one post :)

Well, first post of 2011. Time pass by so fast, I can’t believe another year of blogging is over. Anyways, first post of 2011 means – FIREWORKS pictures~ Struggled a bit with getting good shots, because they shot it up before I had the right settings. But that’s noting Photoshop can’t fix. No really, just adjusted the light a bit. Enjoy~
